Though I am not certain if I will be attending UNC, but I don't think anyone had started this thread yet
Anyone going to the second look on 4/8??

phenylalanine said:hahaha I don't know where I will end up for sure, it changes from day to day.. and I am still waiting for another decision...
where else is everyone thinking besides UNC?
UNC-or-BUST said:I think in the letter it said, "skin skin skin for girls" yeah that sounds about right.
Waiting on Duke and CCLCM and Baylor....mmmm... non-alphabetical order

probably for the best, the dress code is apparently casual, and I'm assuming this normal casual and not nudist casual.
haven't even started classes yet and I am the werid guy...
in a class of this szie we need a couple werids ones, I'll be werid eccentric and now we need 'werid oh no he/she is not really doing what I think he/she is doing...?'phenylalanine said:we always, ALWAYS need a wierd one in any group!!! so you are aight
I did as well, mostly for the MBA ability. The school didn't impress me, i think nicer than UNC but the weather was a kicker. The students didn't seem as happy as I would like and I heard various comments plus or minus about admin.phenylalanine said:sweetdoc,
i know how u feel about this school that school... for me right now, it's between here and pritzker, and i bet we are both waiting for the same school to release next week, which i don't think i'll get in (by the by, do u know when exactly? I have heard from 27, 28, to 31).
I am also an nc resident
anyone has any thought b/w here and pritzker? hahahaha
Anyone here on Duke's waitlistUNC-or-BUST said:I did as well, mostly for the MBA ability. The school didn't impress me, i think nicer than UNC but the weather was a kicker. The students didn't seem as happy as I would like and I heard various comments plus or minus about admin.
They weren't giving me any cash either, 8K a year at UNC not bad....

Well good luck with Yale, UPenn first tier is pretty good they took several people last year. I took my choices down too, applied 25, interviews at almost all, but only kept UNC, CCLCM, and Duke. UNC is nice but CCLCM was amazing. I think I applied to the most diverse set of three top 25's. UNC cheap and great school, Duke expensive and top 5, and CCLCM small class size, 32, expensive but research heavy, five year program.sweetdoc said:Bust, did you get your fin aid from UNC already or are you just generally talking about 8k in-state tuition? I was invited to be on Duke's waitlist, but I declined. I really want this process to be done by the end of April. Right now my choices are UNC and Emory and we'll see about that school that releases next week.
Phenyl, I've heard various things on SDN but the website says the letters are mailed on March 31, so that's the date I'm sticking with. to us

Well thats some crappy advice, you choose a school based on how good you look in their school colors....or not, which ever.hpm4 said:And I know you have heard this before, but where did you feel you fit in better? Where will you be happier?

hpm4 said:I was trying to be philosophical with my advice Bust....is baby blue your color sweetdoc???
sweetdoc said:I cannot tell a lie. I actually have thought about this 'Carolina' blue is the color for me
As far as the whole 'feel' thing goes, I liked my visit to Emory. The people there were almost more chill than the people at Yale. The campus/main hospital are gorgeous. The med school building was kind of dark, but they are building a new one. So I got a good feel for it.
Carolina was my first interview so I was in deer-in-headlights mode all day. My tour guides were nice. Dean Hoole was super nice and so was Mr. Keith. I guess I really didn't see much of the campus except for Berryhill and the applicant-cubby-hole. So I didn't get the best feel. At 2nd Look, I want to talk to more students and get a better feel for the campus (ie where's the gym and student center and do med students use both).

PS - I'm looking into buying a townhouse/condo in Chapel Hill and looking to get a roommate to split the mortgage. How far is the commute from the Southpoint area to CH, phenyl?

hpm4 said:I am living by the Southpoint area in Durham right now and I plan on staying in that area. It's close to a lot of places to eat and the mall is right there. AND it is less expensive than Chapel Hill/Carrboro. I looked at apartmentsand townhouses in Chapel Hill and Carrboro and for the money you got a lot less square footage than in Durham. And there are places right off of I-40 and Hwy 54 where it takes me less than ten minutes to the parking lot (to catch the bus to campus) in the morning and there are always a bunch of med students on the bus with me so I assume thats what most of the do. If you have questions about areas sweetdoc, pm me
Phenyl....one of my good friends bought a townhouse off of woodcroft last year if you have any questions/concerns
phenylalanine said:yeah, h. do u think it's a good idea to buy?
YOU HAVE GOT TO LOVE THIS WEATHER, spring time in NC is truely heaven on earth, if love is in the air then you must be breathing fresh NC HEPA filtered air!!!!sweetdoc said:bump.
I think if I can budget well, a moderately priced house or condo wouldn't be that big of a stretch for me. I've been living off of lateral-entry teacher pay for the past two years, which after taxes, is probably a little more than I'll get for living expenses next year.
